Lainey Wilson is dominating the country music industry right now.
If one thing stands true about Lainey, it’d be that she is 100% country and proud of it.
Born and raised in Baskin, Louisiana, Lainey lived in a trailer for years in Nashville while trying to make it anywhere in her music career.
“Country’s Cool Again” was co-written by Lainey along with Trannie Anderson and Dallas Wilson (the trio who wrote her hit “Heart Like A Truck”), along with Wilson’s band leader Aslan Freeman, and was produced by Jay Joyce.
Lainey says it serves as a welcome to anyone who wants to be part of the Western way of life she grew up in:
“I’m so excited for everyone to hear ‘Country’s Cool Again.’ This song is a welcome to everyone who’s wanting in on the Western way of life.
For a lot of us, Country music isn’t just a genre, it’s our livelihood. Thank you to my amazing collaborators and my producer for helping me bring the idea of this song to life. Country’s Cool Again y’all!”
We know country music or to be country never went out of style, but Lainey is just pointing out how it’s suddenly really cool to be in country in the mainstream media is kind of funny.
“Everybody wanna be a cowboy
Drive a jon boat, whip a John Deere
Everybody want a backwoods front porch
With a tub full of iced-down beer
Must be something in the water flowing out of the holler
Blue collar musta caught a new wind
Doggone, dadgum it, didn’t see that coming
Country’s cool again”
